Nicki Minaj has long upheld that Safaree Samuels is her best friend and denied reports that they’re in a relationship.
Most recently the pair was spotted holding hands leaving dinner looking more like boyfriend and girlfriend than brother and sister.
And while Minaj may have her fans fooled, we here at HipHopWired can see past the antics and recognize their relationship for what it really is—a passionate romance.

So let’s take a look at Nicki and Safaree sitting in a tree…we know for a FACT they’ve been k-i-s-s-i-n-g…
They hold hands.
We’re not rocket scientists but when a man and a woman hold hands it’s usually a sign of more than brotherly or sisterly affection.
Engagement rings
In 2010 there were reports that the couple was engaged after being spotted wearing matching rings on their left hands.
He holds her bags.
Safaree was previously spotted carrying Minaj’s purse and bags through an airport. A sure sign that he’s…*cracks whip*…WHIPPED.
They’re inseparable.
Nicki is rarely spotted without her “bff” by her side, even bringing him onstage during performances. The pair have been this way since their days in the rap group “The Hoodstars.”
